This document appears to trouble the friends of trie Administration very much. They are averse to having the evidence of the waste and extravagance of our present rulers laid before the people. The last Statesman makes a great hoiso about this address, but does not attempt to disprove a single net contained in it for the plain reason, he cannot! The only point which is made in tlio furious attack of the editor, is contained in the following question: "Did these men really believe that a card table was a tubk lo play cardi upon?" Why did not the sage editor ask the same question about a dinner table? Truly, "a second Daniel come lo judgment." The best answer to all this nonsense will be found in the subjoined statement, published in tlio National Intelligencer of July 23d. The namo of Mr. Kino-wav, our Representative in Congress, will he found subscribed lo it. The people of this District and State will take Mr. Ridgway's word for anything he will say. The other names will not suffer in a comparison with his, or any other member of Congress. The facts contained in llio Address, are mostly drawn from Mr. Ogle's speech. The following veri fication of the extracts made by him from public iota, menli, places their correctness beyond doubt: The undersigned, Whig members of Congress, have had their attention called to a publication in the "Globe" of the 10.li of July, 1H 10, under the caption of "Messrs. Lincoln and Ogle," from which tlio following extract is taken: "Ho (Mr. Lincoln) was no friend of Mr. Van Huron, but he would do him the justice to say, if there was any thing wrong in relatiun to tha furniture of the While House, the President was not to blame fur it. On the contrary, he (Mr. L.) knew his great delicacy on the subject, and would assure the gentleman that, whenever the committee had consulted the President in relation to any additional furniiuro, he had invariably expressed his reluctance to have any thing expended for that object, He (Mr. I,.) would state, from his own knowledge, that not a single article of furniture supplied during the last three years, had been supplied at the request of tlio President. The committeo alone were answerable, and they would assume the responsibility." The undersigned do not undertake to any whether Mr. Lincoln used the languago imputed tu him by the "Globe" or not; but as he lias permitted its pub-licaiion to remain ten days wiihout public contradiction, we presume that ho now adopts the language ascribed to him, if he did not originally utter it. For the purpose, therefore, of placing the matter truly before the country, and to correct the gross misrepre sentation of facts contained in the above extract, the undersigned certify that they have carefully examined the vouchers which have been duly audited and set tled hy the Treasury Department, for the purchase of furniture for the President's house since the 4th of March, 1837, and that they have compared the said vouchers with the statements of the same in the published speech of Mr. Ogle, and find the said vouchors truly set forth in the said speech. And they further certify that it appears from the said vouchers that more than eighteen thousand dollars were expended in furniture for the President's house between the 4lh day of March, 1837, and the Gih day of December, 1837, the day on which the Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds was appointed, and of which Mr. Lincoln was chairman; tlio former Committee on Public Uuildings and Grounds having ceased lo exist on the 3d day of March, 1837. The undersigned further certify that it appears from the said vouchers that the said money was expended by the agents of the President, (vis: his son, Abraham Van Ilurcn, T. L. Smith, and others,) on warrants drawn by ordor of the President of the United States himself. And the undersigned would further stale, that the Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds hava no control, direclionjor jurisdiction whatevor, in the selection or purchase of furniture which llio President may see proper to procuro hy himself or his agents, when appropriations are made for that object by law. J. tl.AKIv, ol iS. iork, JAMES COOPER, CH. P. MITCHELL, W. SIMONTON, J. RIDGWAY, P. G. GOODE. Washington, July SO, 1810. As Chairman nf i lie Committee on the Expend turps on Public Uuildings, it becomes my duty to examine the expenditures on the rresiuoiit e houso, I have had tho vouchers before tha committee, and. having examined the subject fully, at the request of Mr, Ogle, I state that tlio Mela pulilislied in his speech are correctly given. I concur in llie foregoing statement ot .Messrs. Mark, Cooper, and oilier. EDW. STANLY, I am a member of the committee of which Mr. Stanly is chairman, and as such have examined the vouchers abovo referred to, and fully concur in the statements or Mr. Manly. JOHN W. ALLEN, of Ohio. Washington, July SO, 1810. I certify that 1 have examined the vouchers referred to in the foregoing statement of the Hon. J. C. Clark and others, and have compared them with the copies as set forth in the speech nf tha Hun. Mr. Ogle, and find that they are truly set forth in iho speech, and ibat upwards of $ 18,(100 ol these expenditures for furniture for Iho President's house were made by tht Preii-dent and his agents at a lima when Ihera was no coin-miltee of Congress in existence, and, of course, made by the Presidetd alone, without uny ono to inlerfero or ii rliirnce his wishes; and I am told hy my friend, Governor Lincoln, that he never made any such remarks as aro published as his in the Globe. CHARLES NAYLOR. Wasiiinoton, July 30, 1810. 07 In support of the remark contained in tho Utter part of Mr. Nnylor's certificate, wo find tha following in a paper before ut : "Mr. Lincoln repeatedly interrupted Mr. Otfle in lilt course of bis ruinnrks, and informed him that Me r port of hit speech which was published in lie Globe, mat taken bu a rcnurter tend published without hit knowledge tir content i he never taw it untit it appeared in print, and had no opportunity to rrciu it i anil he wished it understood thtt it contained very many inaccuracies, somo of w hich he had pointed out to the gentleman from Pa. The report, he repealed, was a perversion of his language, and contained expressions which ha did not use. He disavowed llio spiiil of il entirely. Mr. Ogle said ha was glad to hear the gentleman make this explanation, 1 lu did not believe that any man could stand up before his ennitituents and juslify Ilia foolish extravagance of the President. Ha did not belie vo that any man could justify him in aping ot inreign courts in the purchasing of trench luriit, lure, of irnld plate, of artificial flowers, llrilish poach. fa, and oilier things of ibat sort. He did not believe any man could Justify him in charuiiin his common household expenses to tho people, while ha was receiving the largest salary paid In any public officer in ins nation, President asliington, he said, lived In a plain limine, in a plain maimer and ha paid bis owu rent, and his food, mid family expenses. And thern was no law lo justify Mr. Vail Huron in making inch charges against the people, as he had read from the repoiis. No ether President ever did such a Ihing. If wa permitted these charges in one instance, there would be no end to them no limit whatever, hut Ilia limit of nvnrleo. Instuad of salary ef $'.'5,000, tho salary of tho President miuht be increased hy his own will lo $100,000. Ilo oonsidered this a monstrous abuse nf power, and out that ought to bu immediately hacked.1. LOUISIANA ELECTION. We have no later dates from New-Orleans than those given in our last, extending to the 1 Dili. The Cincinnati Gazette of Wednesday morning contains the following paragraph : " Wo have the Picnyune from New-Orleans of Sunday morning, the 10th instant, contradicting the rumor that W inn had succeeded in the third district by 11 or 13 votes; and the Bulletin of the 18th, slating that Moore goes into the two last parishes in the Slato, where parties are nearly equally divided, with more than 200 majority." We have on our table the New-Orleans Bee of the 18ih, which corroborates the above from the Bulletin, The paragraph in the Picayune of tha lDih, is as follows. These are all tho items we have on the subject, and leave the friends of tho country slill in the enjoyment of tho hope that they have secured one member of Congress more than they had reason to expect: The Election. We find tho following in the Courier of last evening : " We understand that a gentleman who arrived in town this morning, reports that Mr, Winn has been elected lo Congress by a majority of 11 or 13 votes in the 3d district." How any such report could havo reached the cily, we aro at a loss to divine, and feel confident it will turn out a false alarm. We made inquiries yesterday, but could learn nothing of the election in the 3d district, and until the arrival of a boat from Red river, or of the mail from the upper country, we look for no fur ther returns. THE FLAME BURNS I1HIGHTLY IN NEW- JERSEY. A great meeting, numbering between six and seven thousand, was held at Ncw-I)runswick on the 22d instant, lo receive llio rejected Representatives of New-Jersey. Several distinguished gentlemen from other-Slates wero prosent by invitation, among whom wo notice the names of Messrs. Fiitmore, Barnard, and Morgan, of Now-York j Mr. Evans, of Maine, and Mr. Smith, of Connecticut, Members of Congress, The meeting was addressed by Mr. Ilahttud, ono of the rejected Representatives, who gave a detailed account of the w hole question, w ith the proceedings before the Committee on Elections. Ho said that "The committee had undertaken to decide without hearing the evidenco, or even wiihout hearing the parties. They had passed upon that measure, ratified and sealed the disgrace of New-Jersey on the Sabbatli morning, at two o'clock, as if there was no fit sequel to that iniquitous outrage on the laws of man but by an outrage on tho laws of God. "On the last night of the session, the returns from South Aniboy being under discussion, Mr. Halstead was proceeding to argue his cane before the committee, one member was walking up and down the room; another had stretched himself upon three chairs and was taking a comfortable nap; and a third was sitting at the table, with his head bowed upon il, also, as Mr. II. supposed, asleep. So vigilant was the attention they paid lo his argument! So manifest was their anxiety to arrive at a perfectly nor and well-con- sider' il judgment! Mr. II. did not proceed with his remarks beforo the committee. In this way was a question disposed of, involving the dearest rights of freemen, and stripping an independent State of her highest attribute of sovereignty ! Mr. Halstead was followed by Capt. Stockton, of the Navy, one of New-Jersey's own sons, who spoke with the characteristic bluntness of his profession and with the eloquence of truth. Mr. Bandolph, of New, Jersey, Mr. Fillmore, Mr. .'cans, Mr. Barnard, and Mr. Morgan, successively addressed the great con' course. Mr. Southard, of New-Jersey, closed tho meeting with a spirited addreas calculated to arouse the slumbering vengeance of an insulted people. Wo hopo and trust that our readers will carefully examine the facts in litis case, as disclosed in the able report of the minority. They furnish a lesson that should be studied with tht awakened jealousy of free men. GREAT RALLY OF FREEMEN AT STEU-11ENVILLE.We understand by a gentleman direct from Sleu bonvillc, that the higs numbered between 8 and 10,000 at their great meeting at Sluubenvillo, on Wednesday last. Mr. CoawiN was there, and ad dressed llie people. Tho Loooforos appointed a meet ing on the same day, at which Col. Johnson, Senator Allen, and others were advertised to be present. It was expcclrd that both parlies would mingle in one common meeting, but tu this the leaders of llie Administration train-bauds objected. Tho office-holders stood aloof they did not like to havo their lion's skins stripped off hefuro llio peoplo. Tho Locofocoa numbered about 3,0110 a good rally for them but they can't go it wuh the Reform boys. The greatest en thusiasm prevailed among the Whigs, and tha smile of anticipated victory sal upon their faces. Tush on the ball I OUR GOVERNOIR'S DEMOCRACY. We learn from the Zanesville Republican, thai his Excellency Governour Shannon, tho would-bo-consl- dered especial friend and lover of the working man, in company with G. W. Manypenny, in the course of their lectures to harvest people and farmers throughout the Stale, lately addressed a number at Senecaville. Mr. Manypenny first spoke, and was followed by the Governour Iho first dwelling particularly upon John Randolph's refuted charge that Harrison was a Fede ralist, oiuf a particular part of a lady's wardrobe) and Iho l itter upon the "committee," and a charge of Federalism based upon Gen. Harrison's appointment to office by John Adams! Immediately sfier they were through, a very respctabls laboring man, Mr. Israel, was called up to reply lo them, when they sheered off ; and upon being called to oomo back and hear Iho reply of the laborer, Ihry refund. The people again culled, and dated them to the discussion ; but they went on their way thin violating tho rules of common courtesy and politeness, and proclaiming that lin y traverse the country lo leach and dictalo lo the laborer and farmer, and not to listen lo what they havo to any, to learn thiir views, and lo inform themselves otthtir feelings, opinions, and sentiments. "TO THE VICTORS BELONG THE SPOILS." A Mr. I.vo.i, of Ark iiicas, was rcmnvid front the offieu uf Land Receive!, last fall, and for a lima il was supposed that he had brcomo a defaulter. Mr. Lynn was one of llie fw out of the sixly-tmn Re ceivers that had not been found defaulters up tu Iho time of his removal. It now turns out, from a pub' usni'u correspondence oi acnaior oevier, oi uiaioisic, that Mr, Lyon was removed solely on suspicion " that he was opposed to the measures i f the Administration"! Sixty-thrtt had proved defaulters W had rem aiecd faithful to lhir trusts, and this was deemed good evidence of rppositioit to the Administration, and sufficient ground fir removal ! Verily, old things aro passing away. Honesty Is not the bast policy, according to an Uunn t lines. STATE ELECTIONS. On Monday next, elections take place in Alabama, Kentucky, Indiana, Missouri and Illinois. In the first named- tjlate, for members of llie legislature only: In Kentucky, Indiana and Missouri, for governor and members of the legislature, and in Illinois for members of the Slate legisluturo. The electi on is held tbreodaysin Kentucky in the other Slates but one. The election commenced in North Carolina, in several counties, on the 33d Inst., and will be con tinued on the first court days in August in the remain- ng counties; here a governor and members of tha le gislature are to be elected. The duty of electing United States Senators will evolve on the legislatures of Illinois and Alabama, nd in consequence of the resignation of Messrs. Strange and Brown, two Senators are lo be chosen in North Carolina. UyCoLB8, the adjunct of Governour Shannon, and Mr. Commissioner Hntch, in " Bank Reform" last winter, has arrived in Cincinnati, and asks a suspen- ion of public opinion in his affairs. If that is the on ly tmpention likely to ensue from his operations, there can be no great danger in listening lo his suggestion. We hope the " amicable relations" that havo heretofore existed between the high contracting parlies and co-labourers in Bank Reform, are not about to be broken p. Coles had the truo Locofoco stripe last winter; and it was beautiful to see that great luminary in nance, Commissioner Hatch his Counsellor, Mr. Coles, and the personification of " Bunk Reform," Governour Shannon, hold sweet counsel together. Then there was Commissioner Bales, with his Social enlightenments. Take them altogether, they were a bright constellation. They made a tlmrl cut into Bank Riform, aided by the lights of scionre the cut direct, as it would be termed in common language, extending fromSlcubenville, by the way of Gallipolisand Circle-ville, to St. Marys, where the labours of the party were divided between Canal Lands, Canal Estimates, and the more seductive allurements of the Washington So- cial Library Association. " They were beautiful in life let them not be separated in death." SECOND DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE.Tho Globe, and other leading Administration papers, call the Sub-Treasury, the " Second Declaration of In dependence." The idea is not a bad one. Several of our contemporaries, believing in the correctness of this definition, have appended to il the names of the De faulting Sub-Treaturert aa Signers of this new De claration. This is decidedly an improvement, and we hope the idea will not be lost on the supporters of the present Administration. We subjoin the list, for the benefit of such as may not have il at hand : Signers or tii f eroud Declnrntlon of Independence. SAM U E L SWART WOUT, N.York gl,82r.,705 f,9 1': ITi il i mt ii . .

Twelve thousand ardent and patriotic Whiga composed that body of freemen, by far the largest that ever assembled in the State when there was no foreign foe in the field. A flag that wavtd over the heroes of Fori Meigs, was borne in the procession, and called forth rapturous cheers and applause. Two of the few remaining veterans of '76 were in attendance, to aid in the preservation and perpetuation of that liberty and those free institutions for which they fought. One of them had been in the battles of King's Mountain and Cowan's Ford, was in Waynu's army, and knew Gen. Harrison aa eneign and aid to Wayne. ' .

Our friends do not expect to carry the State at the approaching election, but they expect lo reduce the majoiity so low as to demonstrate the possibility of carrying it for old Tip in the fall. A majority in the Legislature may be the fruit of their present exertions. S. S. Prentiss, Esq., of Mississippi, passed through St. Louis recently on his way north, and addressed an assemblage of four or five thousand persons, who were brought together on a short notico He spoke for about three hours and a quarter, commencing at 8 o'clock in the evening. The St. Louis Republican says, "nearly the whole crowd had to stand, and notwithstanding this they remained pa tiently, and gave manifestations of their deep regret when llie luteneas of the hour compelled him to desist." Many ladies in carriages were in attendance, who sat out the whole speech. More Beacon Lightt!

Now, we don't believo any such thing, nnd if he did, we are sorry lo hear it, for Mi. Corwin will asset! nothing but the truth. An air of ludicrniisiicss is thrown over tho subject by the following rem irk of the Statesman editor: "At such an outrago as this, not only democrats alone, but all ro-spnclablo whigs must feel disgust"!!!

' Q, Z, AN ALARMING INNOVATION THE PRESIDENT PLACED ABOVE THE LAW! Heretofore it has been supposed that the enactments of Congress carried with them a binding force lhat the laws passed by the Representatives of the people, were lo be taken as the guide of Ihe Executive and the Heads of Departments, and all others charged with Iho execution of the laws. This rule, so wholesome in itself, and imperative from the very nature of our Government, has been virtually abrogated by the majority in Ihe lute Congress, and the Phesidekt of Ihe United Stales invested with a discretionary power, which places Ihe wholo machinery and power of tho Government in his hands, and makes him the judge of Ihe erpedieney of carrying into effect the provisions of laws enacted for the public good ! In other words, it commits to his hands a power which legitimately belongs to the law-muking power, and makes him Ihe depositary of both the Legislative and Executive powers of the Government subjected to only one restraining condition hit will! That our readers may judge of the correctness of what we here say, we give below the proceedings and debate in the House of Representatives on the Army Appropriation Bill. This debate took place on the day before Ihe adjournment, and deserves attentive consideration. We extract from the National Intelligencer of July 21 i The pendine question beinrr on the amendment of Mr. EveitETT lo llie Senate's amendment, the effect of Inch would be to restrict the action of llie President in postponing certain appropriations in the bill, so as to require him to pursue the order in which Ihe appro priations sianu hi iiif uni Alter some observations, from Mr. 1'RorriT and Mr. mitii, of Indiana, which il is not in the power of the poner 10 repori sausiaciortiy Mr. Stani.v followed, and having made some se vere strictures on Ihe fiscal management of Ihe Administration, was relating what had passed in an interview between himself and the Secretary of the Treasury, when he was called to order by Ihe Chair. air. si.imy insisting mat his remarks were relevant, nd therefore in order, took an appeal from llio decisiou t ine iiiair, Afitr some conversation, howover, ho withdrew his appeal, and conlirtied his remarks. He contended that there was not enouuli money in the Treasury lo pay the appropriations, if they should be passed. He had been to look at ihe litile cell called the Treasury, and it scarcely contained enough specie to pay for one of the President's stale dinners. A greater humbug was never played off upon the Public ihan this same 1 reasury. Mr. Bki.l slated, on his knowledge, that llie Preai- nt had already assumed, within a year past, this ve ry power to suspend or defer the carrying into effect appropriations without any authority of law, and this to the amount of near a million of dollars, wiihout any complaint being made of it. Where, then, was the necessity or Inserting any authority to this eltect In the bill 1 The President already wielded iho power t ordering llio application ot one appropriation, and uspendiug ihe application of another, at his pleasure; nil, Mr. B. said, lie was opposed to legalizinr such a procedure.

Mr. Jones, (Chairman of the Committee of Ways nd Means,) replied, generally, in the affirmative. air. Wise said that, it he were an enemy to the Pre sident, he should bo in favor of putting this discretion in his bauds. He dared him to slop the works, for example, at Harper's Forry, Bed turn off Ihe 300 work-meu there employed, it might cost him something between this and November, lint its other pontons of the country the power ininbl be exercised with ureal effect, Il was in fact nn electioneering: fund, lo the wholo amount of these appropriations, planed at the Executive disposal. He concluded with somo severe strictures on the resolution, which had been entered nto lo take Iho bill out of committee, at half nasi two o'clock. Mr. Cushino insisted on Ihe duty of nlacinn the naiure of this proposition distinctly before the country. A h'tre deficit existed in the Treasury : the Se cretary of ilia Treasury aJ in it led it, and asked f r loans or I reasury notes to meet it. Then the publto creditors were driven from the doors of the House to evade the necessity of providing for their just claims. I tie House haa not exceeded tho estimates ol tho Departments ; and now, under these circumstances, an uvasivo, disingonuoua proposition is brought in to cover up the deficiency of means ftnin the public eye, and at the same time to give ihn President Ihe power lo slop or continue such of the pub! io works as he pleased. Tho only purpose seemed to he a party purpose, in view oi the approaching Presidential election. How much more worthy would it have been to come forward in an open, frank, manly manner, avow Iho want of na tional means, and apply to the Kepresentntivcs of Ihe t'copte to lake measures lo supply them 1 Air. I lll.inoiiAhT commented on llio chanire which was stealing over ihe whole mode of conducting the public business. The initiative, which formerly was in llie Representatives of the People, had now passed over to the President, and every important publio mea sure was suggested by Iho bxeeuiive. I Here was now a further change proposed. That dispensing power which had been contended for bu the Sluaris. and the demand of which brought one if than to the U,ek, was now nsKeu lor mu i-rhsiiifnt of the Vailed states. Tho law was to declare that ceitain sums of money should Im expended on eeriain useful nulilio obieels. Bin ihe Presidonl was lo have power lo dispense with the laws, and say at his pleasure lhat llio money should not be expended. He was lo have a soil of supervisory power aver the leuislalion of Ceuirei and to say whether il should bo obeyed or not. Mr. T. accused Ihe preamble uf Ihe Senate's amendment of (liMiigcnuousnrss, In speaking of the deficit of Ihe I'rensury means as hypothetical, when it was perfect. ly woll known that such deficit was certain and una voidable. This made of avoiding a direct demand for means was now In tho lioverniucnt, and highly dan, gerous in its aspect. Convrtss miuht as well an prnpriate one large sum fur the publio wants, and then leave tne rrcsiuem tu apply the whole at his disere. lion. Mr. Davis, of Kentucky, opposed the amendment of tho cionato on the ground of us practical operation. I ho viovermneni is now a confirmed bankrupt I WHY was it to he allowed to make a preference in favor of one lint aetnana upon it, and against another! Let It act liko other bankrupts, and distribute its s.nsll mesnspro ra'a among the riinvronl objects of Ihe pub Ilo service. Mr. II. expatiated eloquently and Indtg nanlly ujaiiist pulling? in the hand of the President a dispensing power over Ihe laws. If, as Mr. Hell hud athrincd, llio t'reslilenl had dared lo exercise aurn power, already, to Iho amount nf more than a million of dollars, he ought to he 1'ipe.nehed for to doing. by did the President evade his just responsibility by fail ing to demand Ihe means to meet the wants ot the Government 1 He was arrant to n wt ihe I'eopie with a plain exhibition of Ihe true state of the public f"n. corns, and lo save Inmscll I rum exposure, lis listed Cnmrrcs to IrgaMxn his dispensing with Ihe laws, Mr. 1). would propose a resiiicti ui on Iho amendment, so as to require a pro rata nMlueiion of all appropriations in place of the discteliun of the President, lo dispense w ith such as he chose, and in a way beat calculated lo promote his own re-election. The debate was further continued, by Mr, Barnaiih, of New-York, who remarked on the constitutional view of the subject ; Ihe Constitution made il Iho duty to execute the laws ; this amendment, to review and dispense Willi them, &o. When the question being put en the amendment proposed by Mr. E rerun, It was rejected : Ayes, 3 J; noes, 57. Nn quorum having votd, tellers wore demanded, and Ihn vole was taken again, and stood as follows t Ayes 55, noes 70. It will be seen from the foregoing sketch, that s power is conferred on the President of the U. States not inferiour to the prerogatives claimed and exercised by KINGS I The power of dispensing with the laws patted by Congress, is only one step removed from dispensing with Congress altogether! What does thia leave the American People of Ihe law-making powerl The appropriations contained io the bill were all based on the usual recommendations of the Department), either contained in their annual reports submitted tt Congress, or laid before the Committee of Ways and Means, and embodied in the reported bill. If not necessary, why recommended 1 and if necessary, what has ihe Executive to do with the law farther than to see it executed! The power here conferred is dangerous and overshadowing, and places the will of one man over the will of the Peoplk expressed through their Representatives conrerting our Republican Government, in essence and truth, into a MONARCHY ! ! Time are sober truths which it behooves Ihe People of this country to weigh well and consider upon, TWO LEG-TREASURERS IN LIMBO. The Tuscarawas Advocate of the 94th Inst., gives an account of the arrest, at Shanesville, of two men, whose names are Wood and Talet, on a charge of passing base coin. They had with them a bundlo of Extra Ohio Statesman, for distribution. Thoy wure no doubt, engaged in "Reforming the Banks," and spreading their principles! There was a development in Cincinnati, recently, which bore strongly on Ihe hard money reformers. Wood and Tales had also a quantity of Wild Cat money with Ihem, by way of making up the assortment. J7 We have had upon onr file for several days, a communication from the Rev. Mr. Hcaa, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, giving a brief history of the proceedings of the Legislature last winter, on the subject embraced in the memorials praying " further protection of Religious Societies." We shall make art effort to lay it before our readers next Tuesday. Much uncertainty exists as lo the final disposition of this subject. The communication of the Reverend gentle man, whose name we have given above, will correot the Impressions of llie public, and enable the Methodist Church to Judge correctly of their position. JyTho Western members of Congress have most ly returned to their homes. Several passed through this cily on Ihe first of the week, einong whom were Mr. Bond, Mr. Mason, and Mr. IVellcr, of this Slate. Mr. Ridgway Is again among his constituents, in good health and hig'.i hop-s at the prsspect before us. LANCASTER LOG-CABIN RAISING. The Log-Cabin Boys of Old Fairfield, propose, on the llih day of August, to build Old Tip a Cabin. The work will bo done by willing hands.

Lei us bear ihe day in mind, and give them a lift. J7Thk CuatiKr of the "ungarfon Singers," on Wednesday evening, waa palroniicd by a large and fashionable audience. Tha powers exhibited by these performers, particularly the bass of Kaln, and the falsetto of Leibenstein, were truly astonishing. Mr. Rosen, whose soprano is said to be unequalled, and whose echo creates an Illusion on the most practiced ear, Wns prevented by sickness from Joining his com panyhe was detained at Cincinnati. His part in tha Conceit on Wednesday evening waa borne by Leibenstein, who, from this cause, was overtaxed and laboured in his own part. This will prevent the giving of another eoncerl in this cltys was their intention, unless joined by their ftiend. The audience received thiir performance with apparent high gratification, and Ihe Hungarians aro unwilling to repeal il, with out being able to do full justice lo themselves and the cultivated taste uf Iho audienco that may attend. AN EXCELLENT SENTIMENT. Tho late anniversary of our Declaration of Indepen dence has been fruitful In excellent sentiments, both political, moral, temperate, and Jocose. Among Ihe best is one by Speaker W'inthrop, of Massachusetts, which he delivered at Bridgewaler and prefaced thus: "No Massachusetts man, ho said, could fail to feel a peculiar pride aa he cant his eye over the great Declaration which had made this dsy immortal, at find ing at the head ol the roll, and written in that noble hand which seemed to have been destined for that precise distinction, the name of John Haneock one nf the proscribed Massachusetts patriots, whom the Urlllxli Uener at expressly excepted from his proclamation nf pardon in 1775. Now, il was owing to Ihe set nf Benjamin Harrison, of Virginia, Ihe father of William Henry, that Massachusetts enjoyed its proud pre-eminence on the roll of Independence, It was related thst, when Ihe Continental Congress wens shout lo choose a President, Benjamin Harrison resigned his own pretensions, and took John I Uncock hy the hand and placed him in Ihe chair, exclaiming, 'Wo will show mother Britain how much we care for her, hy taking a Massachusetts man whom she so unjustly proscribed.' "Mr, WiNTitiier then proposed the following sentiment:"The Whigtof Massaeh'isetls.Thrj will do towards William HiNar HaaaisoN, of Ohio, what bis father did towards ilu'ir own John H ancocc, and 'show tha lories haw much we cars for there, by taking as our President the man whom Ihny tu so unjustly proscribed.'"

This document appears to trouble the friends of trie Administration very much. They are averse to having the evidence of the waste and extravagance of our present rulers laid before the people. The last Statesman makes a great hoiso about this address, but does not attempt to disprove a single net contained in it for the plain reason, he cannot! The only point which is made in tlio furious attack of the editor, is contained in the following question: "Did these men really believe that a card table was a tubk lo play cardi upon?" Why did not the sage editor ask the same question about a dinner table? Truly, "a second Daniel come lo judgment." The best answer to all this nonsense will be found in the subjoined statement, published in tlio National Intelligencer of July 23d. The namo of Mr. Kino-wav, our Representative in Congress, will he found subscribed lo it. The people of this District and State will take Mr. Ridgway's word for anything he will say. The other names will not suffer in a comparison with his, or any other member of Congress. The facts contained in llio Address, are mostly drawn from Mr. Ogle's speech. The following veri fication of the extracts made by him from public iota, menli, places their correctness beyond doubt: The undersigned, Whig members of Congress, have had their attention called to a publication in the "Globe" of the 10.li of July, 1H 10, under the caption of "Messrs. Lincoln and Ogle," from which tlio following extract is taken: "Ho (Mr. Lincoln) was no friend of Mr. Van Huron, but he would do him the justice to say, if there was any thing wrong in relatiun to tha furniture of the While House, the President was not to blame fur it. On the contrary, he (Mr. L.) knew his great delicacy on the subject, and would assure the gentleman that, whenever the committee had consulted the President in relation to any additional furniiuro, he had invariably expressed his reluctance to have any thing expended for that object, He (Mr. I,.) would state, from his own knowledge, that not a single article of furniture supplied during the last three years, had been supplied at the request of tlio President. The committeo alone were answerable, and they would assume the responsibility." The undersigned do not undertake to any whether Mr. Lincoln used the languago imputed tu him by the "Globe" or not; but as he lias permitted its pub-licaiion to remain ten days wiihout public contradiction, we presume that ho now adopts the language ascribed to him, if he did not originally utter it. For the purpose, therefore, of placing the matter truly before the country, and to correct the gross misrepre sentation of facts contained in the above extract, the undersigned certify that they have carefully examined the vouchers which have been duly audited and set tled hy the Treasury Department, for the purchase of furniture for the President's house since the 4th of March, 1837, and that they have compared the said vouchers with the statements of the same in the published speech of Mr. Ogle, and find the said vouchors truly set forth in the said speech. And they further certify that it appears from the said vouchers that more than eighteen thousand dollars were expended in furniture for the President's house between the 4lh day of March, 1837, and the Gih day of December, 1837, the day on which the Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds was appointed, and of which Mr. Lincoln was chairman; tlio former Committee on Public Uuildings and Grounds having ceased lo exist on the 3d day of March, 1837. The undersigned further certify that it appears from the said vouchers that the said money was expended by the agents of the President, (vis: his son, Abraham Van Ilurcn, T. L. Smith, and others,) on warrants drawn by ordor of the President of the United States himself. And the undersigned would further stale, that the Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds hava no control, direclionjor jurisdiction whatevor, in the selection or purchase of furniture which llio President may see proper to procuro hy himself or his agents, when appropriations are made for that object by law. J. tl.AKIv, ol iS. iork, JAMES COOPER, CH. P. MITCHELL, W. SIMONTON, J. RIDGWAY, P. G. GOODE. Washington, July SO, 1810. As Chairman nf i lie Committee on the Expend turps on Public Uuildings, it becomes my duty to examine the expenditures on the rresiuoiit e houso, I have had tho vouchers before tha committee, and. having examined the subject fully, at the request of Mr, Ogle, I state that tlio Mela pulilislied in his speech are correctly given. I concur in llie foregoing statement ot .Messrs. Mark, Cooper, and oilier. EDW. STANLY, I am a member of the committee of which Mr. Stanly is chairman, and as such have examined the vouchers abovo referred to, and fully concur in the statements or Mr. Manly. JOHN W. ALLEN, of Ohio. Washington, July SO, 1810. I certify that 1 have examined the vouchers referred to in the foregoing statement of the Hon. J. C. Clark and others, and have compared them with the copies as set forth in the speech nf tha Hun. Mr. Ogle, and find that they are truly set forth in iho speech, and ibat upwards of $ 18,(100 ol these expenditures for furniture for Iho President's house were made by tht Preii-dent and his agents at a lima when Ihera was no coin-miltee of Congress in existence, and, of course, made by the Presidetd alone, without uny ono to inlerfero or ii rliirnce his wishes; and I am told hy my friend, Governor Lincoln, that he never made any such remarks as aro published as his in the Globe. CHARLES NAYLOR. Wasiiinoton, July 30, 1810. 07 In support of the remark contained in tho Utter part of Mr. Nnylor's certificate, wo find tha following in a paper before ut : "Mr. Lincoln repeatedly interrupted Mr. Otfle in lilt course of bis ruinnrks, and informed him that Me r port of hit speech which was published in lie Globe, mat taken bu a rcnurter tend published without hit knowledge tir content i he never taw it untit it appeared in print, and had no opportunity to rrciu it i anil he wished it understood thtt it contained very many inaccuracies, somo of w hich he had pointed out to the gentleman from Pa. The report, he repealed, was a perversion of his language, and contained expressions which ha did not use. He disavowed llio spiiil of il entirely. Mr. Ogle said ha was glad to hear the gentleman make this explanation, 1 lu did not believe that any man could stand up before his ennitituents and juslify Ilia foolish extravagance of the President. Ha did not belie vo that any man could justify him in aping ot inreign courts in the purchasing of trench luriit, lure, of irnld plate, of artificial flowers, llrilish poach. fa, and oilier things of ibat sort. He did not believe any man could Justify him in charuiiin his common household expenses to tho people, while ha was receiving the largest salary paid In any public officer in ins nation, President asliington, he said, lived In a plain limine, in a plain maimer and ha paid bis owu rent, and his food, mid family expenses. And thern was no law lo justify Mr. Vail Huron in making inch charges against the people, as he had read from the repoiis. No ether President ever did such a Ihing. If wa permitted these charges in one instance, there would be no end to them no limit whatever, hut Ilia limit of nvnrleo. Instuad of salary ef $'.'5,000, tho salary of tho President miuht be increased hy his own will lo $100,000. Ilo oonsidered this a monstrous abuse nf power, and out that ought to bu immediately hacked.1. LOUISIANA ELECTION. We have no later dates from New-Orleans than those given in our last, extending to the 1 Dili. The Cincinnati Gazette of Wednesday morning contains the following paragraph : " Wo have the Picnyune from New-Orleans of Sunday morning, the 10th instant, contradicting the rumor that W inn had succeeded in the third district by 11 or 13 votes; and the Bulletin of the 18th, slating that Moore goes into the two last parishes in the Slato, where parties are nearly equally divided, with more than 200 majority." We have on our table the New-Orleans Bee of the 18ih, which corroborates the above from the Bulletin, The paragraph in the Picayune of tha lDih, is as follows. These are all tho items we have on the subject, and leave the friends of tho country slill in the enjoyment of tho hope that they have secured one member of Congress more than they had reason to expect: The Election. We find tho following in the Courier of last evening : " We understand that a gentleman who arrived in town this morning, reports that Mr, Winn has been elected lo Congress by a majority of 11 or 13 votes in the 3d district." How any such report could havo reached the cily, we aro at a loss to divine, and feel confident it will turn out a false alarm. We made inquiries yesterday, but could learn nothing of the election in the 3d district, and until the arrival of a boat from Red river, or of the mail from the upper country, we look for no fur ther returns. THE FLAME BURNS I1HIGHTLY IN NEW- JERSEY. A great meeting, numbering between six and seven thousand, was held at Ncw-I)runswick on the 22d instant, lo receive llio rejected Representatives of New-Jersey. Several distinguished gentlemen from other-Slates wero prosent by invitation, among whom wo notice the names of Messrs. Fiitmore, Barnard, and Morgan, of Now-York j Mr. Evans, of Maine, and Mr. Smith, of Connecticut, Members of Congress, The meeting was addressed by Mr. Ilahttud, ono of the rejected Representatives, who gave a detailed account of the w hole question, w ith the proceedings before the Committee on Elections. Ho said that "The committee had undertaken to decide without hearing the evidenco, or even wiihout hearing the parties. They had passed upon that measure, ratified and sealed the disgrace of New-Jersey on the Sabbatli morning, at two o'clock, as if there was no fit sequel to that iniquitous outrage on the laws of man but by an outrage on tho laws of God. "On the last night of the session, the returns from South Aniboy being under discussion, Mr. Halstead was proceeding to argue his cane before the committee, one member was walking up and down the room; another had stretched himself upon three chairs and was taking a comfortable nap; and a third was sitting at the table, with his head bowed upon il, also, as Mr. II. supposed, asleep. So vigilant was the attention they paid lo his argument! So manifest was their anxiety to arrive at a perfectly nor and well-con- sider' il judgment! Mr. II. did not proceed with his remarks beforo the committee. In this way was a question disposed of, involving the dearest rights of freemen, and stripping an independent State of her highest attribute of sovereignty ! Mr. Halstead was followed by Capt. Stockton, of the Navy, one of New-Jersey's own sons, who spoke with the characteristic bluntness of his profession and with the eloquence of truth. Mr. Bandolph, of New, Jersey, Mr. Fillmore, Mr. .'cans, Mr. Barnard, and Mr. Morgan, successively addressed the great con' course. Mr. Southard, of New-Jersey, closed tho meeting with a spirited addreas calculated to arouse the slumbering vengeance of an insulted people. Wo hopo and trust that our readers will carefully examine the facts in litis case, as disclosed in the able report of the minority. They furnish a lesson that should be studied with tht awakened jealousy of free men. GREAT RALLY OF FREEMEN AT STEU-11ENVILLE.We understand by a gentleman direct from Sleu bonvillc, that the higs numbered between 8 and 10,000 at their great meeting at Sluubenvillo, on Wednesday last. Mr. CoawiN was there, and ad dressed llie people. Tho Loooforos appointed a meet ing on the same day, at which Col. Johnson, Senator Allen, and others were advertised to be present. It was expcclrd that both parlies would mingle in one common meeting, but tu this the leaders of llie Administration train-bauds objected. Tho office-holders stood aloof they did not like to havo their lion's skins stripped off hefuro llio peoplo. Tho Locofocoa numbered about 3,0110 a good rally for them but they can't go it wuh the Reform boys. The greatest en thusiasm prevailed among the Whigs, and tha smile of anticipated victory sal upon their faces. Tush on the ball I OUR GOVERNOIR'S DEMOCRACY. We learn from the Zanesville Republican, thai his Excellency Governour Shannon, tho would-bo-consl- dered especial friend and lover of the working man, in company with G. W. Manypenny, in the course of their lectures to harvest people and farmers throughout the Stale, lately addressed a number at Senecaville. Mr. Manypenny first spoke, and was followed by the Governour Iho first dwelling particularly upon John Randolph's refuted charge that Harrison was a Fede ralist, oiuf a particular part of a lady's wardrobe) and Iho l itter upon the "committee," and a charge of Federalism based upon Gen. Harrison's appointment to office by John Adams! Immediately sfier they were through, a very respctabls laboring man, Mr. Israel, was called up to reply lo them, when they sheered off ; and upon being called to oomo back and hear Iho reply of the laborer, Ihry refund. The people again culled, and dated them to the discussion ; but they went on their way thin violating tho rules of common courtesy and politeness, and proclaiming that lin y traverse the country lo leach and dictalo lo the laborer and farmer, and not to listen lo what they havo to any, to learn thiir views, and lo inform themselves otthtir feelings, opinions, and sentiments. "TO THE VICTORS BELONG THE SPOILS." A Mr. I.vo.i, of Ark iiicas, was rcmnvid front the offieu uf Land Receive!, last fall, and for a lima il was supposed that he had brcomo a defaulter. Mr. Lynn was one of llie fw out of the sixly-tmn Re ceivers that had not been found defaulters up tu Iho time of his removal. It now turns out, from a pub' usni'u correspondence oi acnaior oevier, oi uiaioisic, that Mr, Lyon was removed solely on suspicion " that he was opposed to the measures i f the Administration"! Sixty-thrtt had proved defaulters W had rem aiecd faithful to lhir trusts, and this was deemed good evidence of rppositioit to the Administration, and sufficient ground fir removal ! Verily, old things aro passing away. Honesty Is not the bast policy, according to an Uunn t lines. STATE ELECTIONS. On Monday next, elections take place in Alabama, Kentucky, Indiana, Missouri and Illinois. In the first named- tjlate, for members of llie legislature only: In Kentucky, Indiana and Missouri, for governor and members of the legislature, and in Illinois for members of the Slate legisluturo. The electi on is held tbreodaysin Kentucky in the other Slates but one. The election commenced in North Carolina, in several counties, on the 33d Inst., and will be con tinued on the first court days in August in the remain- ng counties; here a governor and members of tha le gislature are to be elected. The duty of electing United States Senators will evolve on the legislatures of Illinois and Alabama, nd in consequence of the resignation of Messrs. Strange and Brown, two Senators are lo be chosen in North Carolina. UyCoLB8, the adjunct of Governour Shannon, and Mr. Commissioner Hntch, in " Bank Reform" last winter, has arrived in Cincinnati, and asks a suspen- ion of public opinion in his affairs. If that is the on ly tmpention likely to ensue from his operations, there can be no great danger in listening lo his suggestion. We hope the " amicable relations" that havo heretofore existed between the high contracting parlies and co-labourers in Bank Reform, are not about to be broken p. Coles had the truo Locofoco stripe last winter; and it was beautiful to see that great luminary in nance, Commissioner Hatch his Counsellor, Mr. Coles, and the personification of " Bunk Reform," Governour Shannon, hold sweet counsel together. Then there was Commissioner Bales, with his Social enlightenments. Take them altogether, they were a bright constellation. They made a tlmrl cut into Bank Riform, aided by the lights of scionre the cut direct, as it would be termed in common language, extending fromSlcubenville, by the way of Gallipolisand Circle-ville, to St. Marys, where the labours of the party were divided between Canal Lands, Canal Estimates, and the more seductive allurements of the Washington So- cial Library Association. " They were beautiful in life let them not be separated in death." SECOND DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE.Tho Globe, and other leading Administration papers, call the Sub-Treasury, the " Second Declaration of In dependence." The idea is not a bad one. Several of our contemporaries, believing in the correctness of this definition, have appended to il the names of the De faulting Sub-Treaturert aa Signers of this new De claration. This is decidedly an improvement, and we hope the idea will not be lost on the supporters of the present Administration. We subjoin the list, for the benefit of such as may not have il at hand : Signers or tii f eroud Declnrntlon of Independence. SAM U E L SWART WOUT, N.York gl,82r.,705 f,9 1': ITi il i mt ii . .

Twelve thousand ardent and patriotic Whiga composed that body of freemen, by far the largest that ever assembled in the State when there was no foreign foe in the field. A flag that wavtd over the heroes of Fori Meigs, was borne in the procession, and called forth rapturous cheers and applause. Two of the few remaining veterans of '76 were in attendance, to aid in the preservation and perpetuation of that liberty and those free institutions for which they fought. One of them had been in the battles of King's Mountain and Cowan's Ford, was in Waynu's army, and knew Gen. Harrison aa eneign and aid to Wayne. ' .

The St. Louis Republican says, "nearly the whole crowd had to stand, and notwithstanding this they remained pa tiently, and gave manifestations of their deep regret when llie luteneas of the hour compelled him to desist."

' Q, Z, AN ALARMING INNOVATION THE PRESIDENT PLACED ABOVE THE LAW! Heretofore it has been supposed that the enactments of Congress carried with them a binding force lhat the laws passed by the Representatives of the people, were lo be taken as the guide of Ihe Executive and the Heads of Departments, and all others charged with Iho execution of the laws. This rule, so wholesome in itself, and imperative from the very nature of our Government, has been virtually abrogated by the majority in Ihe lute Congress, and the Phesidekt of Ihe United Stales invested with a discretionary power, which places Ihe wholo machinery and power of tho Government in his hands, and makes him the judge of Ihe erpedieney of carrying into effect the provisions of laws enacted for the public good ! In other words, it commits to his hands a power which legitimately belongs to the law-muking power, and makes him Ihe depositary of both the Legislative and Executive powers of the Government subjected to only one restraining condition hit will! That our readers may judge of the correctness of what we here say, we give below the proceedings and debate in the House of Representatives on the Army Appropriation Bill. This debate took place on the day before Ihe adjournment, and deserves attentive consideration. We extract from the National Intelligencer of July 21 i The pendine question beinrr on the amendment of Mr. EveitETT lo llie Senate's amendment, the effect of Inch would be to restrict the action of llie President in postponing certain appropriations in the bill, so as to require him to pursue the order in which Ihe appro priations sianu hi iiif uni Alter some observations, from Mr. 1'RorriT and Mr. mitii, of Indiana, which il is not in the power of the poner 10 repori sausiaciortiy Mr. Stani.v followed, and having made some se vere strictures on Ihe fiscal management of Ihe Administration, was relating what had passed in an interview between himself and the Secretary of the Treasury, when he was called to order by Ihe Chair. air. si.imy insisting mat his remarks were relevant, nd therefore in order, took an appeal from llio decisiou t ine iiiair, Afitr some conversation, howover, ho withdrew his appeal, and conlirtied his remarks. He contended that there was not enouuli money in the Treasury lo pay the appropriations, if they should be passed. He had been to look at ihe litile cell called the Treasury, and it scarcely contained enough specie to pay for one of the President's stale dinners. A greater humbug was never played off upon the Public ihan this same 1 reasury. Mr. Bki.l slated, on his knowledge, that llie Preai- nt had already assumed, within a year past, this ve ry power to suspend or defer the carrying into effect appropriations without any authority of law, and this to the amount of near a million of dollars, wiihout any complaint being made of it. Where, then, was the necessity or Inserting any authority to this eltect In the bill 1 The President already wielded iho power t ordering llio application ot one appropriation, and uspendiug ihe application of another, at his pleasure; nil, Mr. B. said, lie was opposed to legalizinr such a procedure. Mr. isg inquired whctlutr all the appropriations to be thus deferred at thu President's pleasure, had not been recommended by the Departments, and estimates made for tin in. Mr. Jones, (Chairman of the Committee of Ways nd Means,) replied, generally, in the affirmative. air. Wise said that, it he were an enemy to the Pre sident, he should bo in favor of putting this discretion in his bauds. He dared him to slop the works, for example, at Harper's Forry, Bed turn off Ihe 300 work-meu there employed, it might cost him something between this and November, lint its other pontons of the country the power ininbl be exercised with ureal effect, Il was in fact nn electioneering: fund, lo the wholo amount of these appropriations, planed at the Executive disposal. He concluded with somo severe strictures on the resolution, which had been entered nto lo take Iho bill out of committee, at half nasi two o'clock. Mr. Cushino insisted on Ihe duty of nlacinn the naiure of this proposition distinctly before the country. A h'tre deficit existed in the Treasury : the Se cretary of ilia Treasury aJ in it led it, and asked f r loans or I reasury notes to meet it. Then the publto creditors were driven from the doors of the House to evade the necessity of providing for their just claims. I tie House haa not exceeded tho estimates ol tho Departments ; and now, under these circumstances, an uvasivo, disingonuoua proposition is brought in to cover up the deficiency of means ftnin the public eye, and at the same time to give ihn President Ihe power lo slop or continue such of the pub! io works as he pleased. Tho only purpose seemed to he a party purpose, in view oi the approaching Presidential election. How much more worthy would it have been to come forward in an open, frank, manly manner, avow Iho want of na tional means, and apply to the Kepresentntivcs of Ihe t'copte to lake measures lo supply them 1 Air. I lll.inoiiAhT commented on llio chanire which was stealing over ihe whole mode of conducting the public business. The initiative, which formerly was in llie Representatives of the People, had now passed over to the President, and every important publio mea sure was suggested by Iho bxeeuiive. I Here was now a further change proposed. That dispensing power which had been contended for bu the Sluaris. and the demand of which brought one if than to the U,ek, was now nsKeu lor mu i-rhsiiifnt of the Vailed states. Tho law was to declare that ceitain sums of money should Im expended on eeriain useful nulilio obieels. Bin ihe Presidonl was lo have power lo dispense with the laws, and say at his pleasure lhat llio money should not be expended. He was lo have a soil of supervisory power aver the leuislalion of Ceuirei and to say whether il should bo obeyed or not. Mr. T. accused Ihe preamble uf Ihe Senate's amendment of (liMiigcnuousnrss, In speaking of the deficit of Ihe I'rensury means as hypothetical, when it was perfect. ly woll known that such deficit was certain and una voidable. This made of avoiding a direct demand for means was now In tho lioverniucnt, and highly dan, gerous in its aspect. Convrtss miuht as well an prnpriate one large sum fur the publio wants, and then leave tne rrcsiuem tu apply the whole at his disere. lion. Mr. Davis, of Kentucky, opposed the amendment of tho cionato on the ground of us practical operation. I ho viovermneni is now a confirmed bankrupt I WHY was it to he allowed to make a preference in favor of one lint aetnana upon it, and against another! Let It act liko other bankrupts, and distribute its s.nsll mesnspro ra'a among the riinvronl objects of Ihe pub Ilo service. Mr. II. expatiated eloquently and Indtg nanlly ujaiiist pulling? in the hand of the President a dispensing power over Ihe laws. If, as Mr. Hell hud athrincd, llio t'reslilenl had dared lo exercise aurn power, already, to Iho amount nf more than a million of dollars, he ought to he 1'ipe.nehed for to doing. by did the President evade his just responsibility by fail ing to demand Ihe means to meet the wants ot the Government 1 He was arrant to n wt ihe I'eopie with a plain exhibition of Ihe true state of the public f"n. corns, and lo save Inmscll I rum exposure, lis listed Cnmrrcs to IrgaMxn his dispensing with Ihe laws, Mr. 1). would propose a resiiicti ui on Iho amendment, so as to require a pro rata nMlueiion of all appropriations in place of the discteliun of the President, lo dispense w ith such as he chose, and in a way beat calculated lo promote his own re-election. The debate was further continued, by Mr, Barnaiih, of New-York, who remarked on the constitutional view of the subject ; Ihe Constitution made il Iho duty to execute the laws ; this amendment, to review and dispense Willi them, &o. When the question being put en the amendment proposed by Mr. E rerun, It was rejected : Ayes, 3 J; noes, 57. Nn quorum having votd, tellers wore demanded, and Ihn vole was taken again, and stood as follows t Ayes 55, noes 70. It will be seen from the foregoing sketch, that s power is conferred on the President of the U. States not inferiour to the prerogatives claimed and exercised by KINGS I The power of dispensing with the laws patted by Congress, is only one step removed from dispensing with Congress altogether! What does thia leave the American People of Ihe law-making powerl The appropriations contained io the bill were all based on the usual recommendations of the Department), either contained in their annual reports submitted tt Congress, or laid before the Committee of Ways and Means, and embodied in the reported bill. If not necessary, why recommended 1 and if necessary, what has ihe Executive to do with the law farther than to see it executed! The power here conferred is dangerous and overshadowing, and places the will of one man over the will of the Peoplk expressed through their Representatives conrerting our Republican Government, in essence and truth, into a MONARCHY ! ! Time are sober truths which it behooves Ihe People of this country to weigh well and consider upon, TWO LEG-TREASURERS IN LIMBO. The Tuscarawas Advocate of the 94th Inst., gives an account of the arrest, at Shanesville, of two men, whose names are Wood and Talet, on a charge of passing base coin. They had with them a bundlo of Extra Ohio Statesman, for distribution. Thoy wure no doubt, engaged in "Reforming the Banks," and spreading their principles! There was a development in Cincinnati, recently, which bore strongly on Ihe hard money reformers. Wood and Tales had also a quantity of Wild Cat money with Ihem, by way of making up the assortment. J7 We have had upon onr file for several days, a communication from the Rev. Mr. Hcaa, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, giving a brief history of the proceedings of the Legislature last winter, on the subject embraced in the memorials praying " further protection of Religious Societies." We shall make art effort to lay it before our readers next Tuesday. Much uncertainty exists as lo the final disposition of this subject. The communication of the Reverend gentle man, whose name we have given above, will correot the Impressions of llie public, and enable the Methodist Church to Judge correctly of their position.

His part in tha Conceit on Wednesday evening waa borne by Leibenstein, who, from this cause, was overtaxed and laboured in his own part.

AN EXCELLENT SENTIMENT. Tho late anniversary of our Declaration of Indepen dence has been fruitful In excellent sentiments, both political, moral, temperate, and Jocose. Among Ihe best is one by Speaker W'inthrop, of Massachusetts, which he delivered at Bridgewaler and prefaced thus: "No Massachusetts man, ho said, could fail to feel a peculiar pride aa he cant his eye over the great Declaration which had made this dsy immortal, at find ing at the head ol the roll, and written in that noble hand which seemed to have been destined for that precise distinction, the name of John Haneock one nf the proscribed Massachusetts patriots, whom the Urlllxli Uener at expressly excepted from his proclamation nf pardon in 1775. Now, il was owing to Ihe set nf Benjamin Harrison, of Virginia, Ihe father of William Henry, that Massachusetts enjoyed its proud pre-eminence on the roll of Independence, It was related thst, when Ihe Continental Congress wens shout lo choose a President, Benjamin Harrison resigned his own pretensions, and took John I Uncock hy the hand and placed him in Ihe chair, exclaiming, 'Wo will show mother Britain how much we care for her, hy taking a Massachusetts man whom she so unjustly proscribed.' "Mr, WiNTitiier then proposed the following sentiment:"The Whigtof Massaeh'isetls.Thrj will do towards William HiNar HaaaisoN, of Ohio, what bis father did towards ilu'ir own John H ancocc, and 'show tha lories haw much we cars for there, by taking as our President the man whom Ihny tu so unjustly proscribed.'"
